Deuteronomy 15:1-5

1At the endH7093 of every sevenH7651 yearsH8141 thou shalt makeH6213 a releaseH8059.

2And this is the mannerH1697 of the releaseH8059: Every creditorH3027H4874H1167 that lendethH5383 ought unto his neighbourH7453 shall releaseH8058 it; he shall not exactH5065 it of his neighbourH7453, or of his brotherH251; because it is calledH7121 Yhwh'sH3068 releaseH8059.1

3Of a foreignerH5237 thou mayest exactH5065 it again: but that which is thine with thy brotherH251 thine handH3027 shall releaseH8058;

4SaveH657 when there shall be no poorH34 among you; for YhwhH3068 shall greatlyH1288 blessH1288 thee in the landH776 which YhwhH3068 thy GodH430 givethH5414 thee for an inheritanceH5159 to possessH3423 it:2

5Only if thou carefullyH8085 hearkenH8085 unto the voiceH6963 of YhwhH3068 thy GodH430, to observeH8104 to doH6213 all these commandmentsH4687 which I commandH6680 thee this dayH3117.
